The rules: 1. You are playing The Game. 2. Whenever you think about The Game, you lose. 3. Loss must be announced. ...And now that I've told you all about The Game, you are all playing. And since you've just started playing The Game, you just lost The Game. Congratulations! You must now forget that you are playing The Game. Next time you remember, you lose, but remember to announce your loss and take someone down with you! Strategies Training yourself not to think about The Game is nearly impossible, and often counter-productive. The best strategies involve causing others to lose more than yourself. The best way to do this is to always announce your loss to as many people as possible. This reminds current players about The Game and initiates new ones. It is very difficult to consciously cause someone to lose without losing yourself. You can try and cause others to associate objects or events with The Game. For example, you could tell a friend that whenever they see their bed they will lose. This can back-fire unless well thought out, in this example you could end up associating your bed with loss. An object which is only found in your friend's room would be a better target. Reminders A much less subtle technique involves leaving reminders in places that will be seen by others more than yourself. This could include graffiti, notes & signs, forum posts, messenger names, answerphone messages and much more.
